"Wow. Just wow." That's the tagline of this slideshow. When we set out to collect these, we had no idea how bad they'd be. Killer dolphins, math fails, title contradictions, they're all here. If you know of one we missed, shoot us an email!

The Day Of The Dolphin - "Unwittingly, he trained a dolphin to kill the President of the United States"

It's hard to believe this is a Mike Nichols film...it's also hard to believe you can accidentally train a dolphin to assassinate your political enemies.

I think the 'Frogs' one rocks and it fits. :)

I want to see the bad 'Ape' movie now. LOL

Many taglines are silly. It's just for marketing and it works. I tell you, that I hate when the taglines does not match the movie. Then you wonder if the person (who made it up) ever saw the movie or knew what it was about!

EX: 'Wildfire' with Steven Bauer and Linda Fiorentino....'Apart they are dangerous. Together they are deadly'.

Legion (2010)
Tagline:
When the last angel falls,
the fight for mankind begins
Plot: God loses faith in humankind and sends his legion of angels to bring on the Apocalypse.

How is the fight suppose to begin if the last angel has fallen?

Oh come on people! - hands down the winner has to be "Today the pond. Tomorrow the world" - sounds like Dr. Evil's pet frog has escaped from the terrarium. Can anyone say Mwa-hahaha!!!! or should that be Ribet-hahahaha!!! (sorry, I got carried away there)

I actually did this for a living. Selling movies. Mostly selling American movies to foreigners at conventions around the world. Some of these lines are pretty good. "Titans Will Clash" sounds good. "Die Harder" I believe was voiced by my friend Don LaFontaine so... it sells. The Chuck Norris movie sells the Chuck Norris movie. And "Pants" is cute. It should do well on Showtime. "Frogs" is a hoot and lets you know exactly what kind of movies it is.

The rest pretty much suck and i would be embarrassed to work on them. I would take the money but I would be ashamed of myself.... all the way to the bank. Then I would get better.

you forgot Killer Klowns From Outer Space - "In Space No One Gets Ice Cream".

[LLelantra]

what is it about camps and outerspace. you use the john and the next thing you know your hurling past Uranus.

Two things:

1) That "Silent Rage" tagline is amazing.
2) I gotta get me to Cracktown!

Chuck Norris: Fighting science even then.

[Rick Webster]

I am afraid that Karma will demand that Chuck Norris lose his life in a particularly embarrassing way.

The best one I've heard recently was for the Thai movie Chocolate: "The story of a special needs girl, with a special need....to kick some ass!"

[veritas88]

lmao!

Sister Hood of the Traveling Pants - "I have no idea who was in that movie or what it was even about. If things go well, it will stay that way."

I think what you missed about "Ghost Ship" is that if you look very carefully at the illustration of the ship, the prow looks... almost like.... A HUMAN SKULL! AAAAAAA! AAAAAAA! AAAAAA!

So props for subtlety.

[MissMel10]

Subtlety? I doubt anyone missed that! LOL

The dolphin plot failed when they tried to take the president out at Camp David.

[CessnaDriver]

They's crafly, them dolphins!

I call them the Northern Pike of the Sea.
